I'm sorry to hear about your own problems just now. I've
worked with Windows and Macs for years. It's very hard when you
start with a new OS and or computer. Things do go wrong.

LINUX HAS NO DECENT EMAIL CLIENT! And yes, I've bloody tried >them
all. They have at least one of: An unusable user interface >(Pine),

I've got one going at the moment where Kmail works fine until I
install XF Mail. Then Kmail stops working and XF Mail won't do
anything either. Any help from Ted Harding would be appreciated with
this one. I thought about sending a bug report to Gennady about it.
There would have been a time when going back to MS Windows
would have been a good option for me. However, I've worked in
internet tech support and that put me off windows quite a bit. All
those people threatening me over the phone because their machines
didn't work put me off it. The OS invites death threats and
violence.
At least with linux I get to meet nice people who have a different
view of the world ? One of my other problems is the growing pile of
scrap which has been generated by the testing of new windows
software. Broken boards, HDs etc are not something that I welcome.
I hope that you can get things to work for you eventually :-)
